I started building websites in 2006 with no idea what SEO even meant. I just knew I loved taking a concept and making it appear digitally in the form of a website. Years later, I discovered that SEO wasn’t just technical; it was a way to help people find what they’re looking for. I have a background in Spanish Linguistics that allowed me to see SEO as a language to learn. Now I lead SEO Training and Strategy for clients across industries. One of my deepest passions is helping businesses and organizations get found online.

Exactly what I needed

“The virtual training was exactly what I needed to get up to speed on handling our website. The bonus was that we addressed all of my current updates during the sessions, and I have a list of ongoing improvements that I know exactly how to handle. Having the training sessions broken into 2 four-hour sessions allowed me to get started – and then try things by myself with another chance to clear up anything I didn’t quite get. Thanks!”

Take back control of your company website.

Do your website change requests seem to have fallen into a black hole? Unfortunately, you're not the only one. Most employees do not have the knowledge required to make informed decisions about digital assets. Sometimes, they end up outsourcing these important decisions to a third party.

Lack of in-house knowledge creates a costly dependency on website agencies.

Remove the middleman with WordPress courses in San Francisco. Your team will be equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to run, maintain, and update the company's website--all without having to deal with poor communication from third parties.

Give your team the skills they need to be successful

Have your employees ever gotten frustrated or behind schedule due to an unresponsive website manager or agency? You're not the only one with this concern. Does your sales department consider your company website a valuable asset in closing sales?

Too many teams lack internal command of the company website, which affects your bottom line. This lack of control means your staff may have to wait days (or even weeks) to implement changes or new campaigns.

With our staff WordPress training in San Francisco, Emily Journey can help you remove the middleman and give your team control over updates. Each of your team members will be equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to run, maintain, and update your company website--all without having to deal with poor communication from third parties.
